I was raised on soul food, Eagle's is the best restaurant in this category I have ever eaten. Right now I can't even think of a close second. Only been trying to get to this place for about 10 years. I beat my kids here and got to chat it up with other patrons who all told me what their favorite items were and to make sure I saved room for peach cobbler or banana pudding. We all ordered cube steak, it was so tender you could cut it with your plastic fork, and the seasoning and gravy were perfect. Likewise the turnip greens were cooked to perfection and the fresh fried corn really took me back to my grandad's farm. Everything was excellent and the staff here is just great, they were just as helpful as they were forgiving all us first timers. My highest 5 star recommendation of all time, make sure to put this on the top of your Birmingham wish list.

Since this is Mother's Day weekend and my sons are out of state, I decided to stop at Eagles restaurant today for a Pre Mother's Day dinner. I tried the baked chicken with cornbread dressing, collard greens, macaroni and cheese with cornbread. Delicious food enough for leftovers tomorrow. The customer service is great. Ambiance of the restaurant is calm. A few booths are available to dine in and watch television if you want to enjoy delicious soul food lunch and dinner.

This place is the most flavorful southern food I've ever had, I normally do t even like pork chops try this and tell me your granny doesn't have competition

I don't get a chance to eat here as often as I would like, best Soul Food in Birmingham, Al DON'T Debate me on this. But when I do like today the Food is still alwaysssssssss a 10/10 Every-time! The Customer Service is always great, did I mention the Food is always delicious? If you want some good Soul Food and your in Birmingham, Al and your not at Eagles, I need you to get there now you will not be disappointed!

Great food and friendly people. The vegetables and meat are all amazing. Do yourself a favor and make the trip there.

I haven't been here in a long time. Ao hopefully this review still stands true. But this is some of the best soul food in Birmingham. The line wrapped around inside the building, leading outside should be an indicator. I haven't been since covide. I hope they're still open. The food is always consistent and you can tell made with love.

Been enjoying the food from Eagles for many years when going through B'ham. I just miss being able to enjoy their wares seated in the restaurant. Keep up the good work! Love this place.

Overall i rate this a 10/10. i went maybe like a week ago, and the inside was closed. we had to stand in line outside and order to go. the wait was a tad bit longer than what i expected, but nothing too bad. the food was great, everything tasted amazing. also, i was amazed at how much food i was given. i was able to eat off my plate for 2 days, and still could not finish it all. you will definitely get your money's worth.

I came here after reading about it in the book "Birmingham Food" by Emily Brown. Beef tips, rice with gravy, dressing, collards, and cheese biscuits. All hearty portions with great taste. My favorite was the beef tips mixed with gravy and rice. The beef tips were very tender and savory. The dressing was a little watery for my liking, but that wasn't too big of a deal since it still tasted good. Good bang for your buck at $11.

Eagle's eagle's eagle's!!! When I say this is the best soul food restaurant in Birmingham I MEAN IT!!! I first heard about eagle's in a news paper article back in 2006....guess what....I've been a loyal custom every since!!!! Sundays is my fav day to go as they have chittlins lol yes I love me some chittlins (don't judge me lol)!!! Make sure you make it there early on Sunday as the line starts 30mins yes 30mins before they open!!! Online ordering is available but you still have to stand in line to get inside. I PROMISE IT WILL BE WORTH THE WAIT!! P.s. BE READY FOR A NAP AFTER YOU EAT!!
